mountaintree16 Posted July 24, 2009 ID:101866 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Anyone seen the ads? Lately its been the lolipop lolipop ad, its kinda catchy lolAnyway, I was curious about them today, so I went to the site, dell.com/verizon, and I was surprised to see that the OS is Windows XP SP3. I thought that no computers were being sold with XP anymore, so that was kind of surprising, especially considering the fact that Windows 7 is on its way and Vista's already been out for a couple of years.What do you think about that?

yardbird Posted July 24, 2009 ID:101877 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Kinda small, for an extra $200+ you can get a regular size notebook.. unless your checking out mini's, then you have to add the add on's ie: is it bare bones, 512mb ram, small HD? I need to look into them more than 1 website. just my 2 bits Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Spud Posted July 24, 2009 Staff ID:101977 Share Posted July 24, 2009 I know that here in the UK, manufacturers were giving the customers the option to have a new PC/laptop rolled back to XP rather than have Vista installed as many felt Vista was too problematic. Masy systems are still released with XP Sp3. Lets hope Windows 7 does a better job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
